New commission for The Fourth Plinth unveiled
The new commission for The Fourth Plinth, Powerless Structures, Fig.101 by artist duo Elmgreen and Dragset, has been unveiled in London. The 4.1m high statue is a twist on the traditional equestrian portrait, the artists say, because instead of growing up celebrating military victory and commemorating fame, it acknowledges the "heroism of growing up."
